Competitions and Initiatives

Besides our own range of offerings, we support initiatives that allow adolescents to pit their talents against each other. Dating back to 2005, our commitment in this area is continuously expanded.

Jugend forscht – Schüler experimentieren
(a student science competition)

We have promoted local competitions and their
organizations for years. We provide required materials and
help with design, testing and scientific documentation. In
addition, we support anyone with a good idea by providing
project assistance.

Management Information Game (MIG)

We regularly host the corporate planning game MIG at our
ROYOUTH Center. Participants are specifically introduced
to the varied and complex interactions between companies
and the economy as a whole. In addition, we also act as
external subject-matter specialists for the MIG.

FIRST® LEGO® League

Through the construction and programming of LEGO®
robots, this program introduces young people to science
and technology. We support the regional competition, in
which students are judged in four categories: Robot Design,
Research Project, Teamwork and Robot Game.

3malE School Competition

This competition focuses on energy. We support teams of
students who take part in this competition and wish to
develop and submit creative projects on the topics of
climate and environmental protection, efficient energy use,
or ecological nutrition.

Formula 1 in Schools

This technology competition is about racing a miniature racing car against other teams. ROYOUTH offers students support and the opportunity to draw and develop their racing car at the ROYOUTH Center. In addition, participants must prepare a team box, a portfolio and a presentation.

Lingens Ferienpassaktion
(school break pass campaign)

We take part in the city’s school break pass campaign
and contribute various activities from our portfolio. During
the summer and fall breaks, young people can take part in
exciting days of experimentation and facility tours
organized by us.

MINT Camp

The aim of this one-week workshop is to get students
interested in mathematics, IT, natural sciences and
technology (MINT). We support the University of
Osnabrück and regional secondary schools in conducting
workshops. Each workshop contains theoretical units
and practical exercises.
